Got this to replace a failing on board sound card. I was bit worried about the compatibility with Linux (Ubuntu 11.04 I think) but it work flawlessly the first time without having to install any extra packages or go to the command line.

Well, I was just looking for the cheapest card that is window7 compatible, and I guess this is it!! So, I wasn't expecting top quality sound but hey it's still pretty ok.

Pros: Inexpensive
Comment:
Bought this to upgrade my pc, wish i hadn't though. It froze the pc after installing and only worked when i swapped this for my modem and worked in that slot. After finally getting it to work i realized that the software nor the windows volume control had options for separate rear and front volumes which my on board audio has, which was a huge issue for me because my rear speakers are farther away.

Cons: card could have been smaller if it's big it might not fit some smaller cases liek shuttles

Pros: Solid CardHas mic input too and headset outputworks well with budget speakers (5.1)
Comment:
Works as advertised. Simple card that can support up to 5.1 speakers. So far nothing with flaaking music or anything. Comes with drivers incase you can't find it, works well. INstallation was very easy took about 10 min. Easy to get to run. works with WIN XP. I haven' ttried this with vista, but probably will work. However vista is known to reject alot of drivers for no reason whatsoever.

Cons: Non considérant le prix payé.

Pros: Bonne carte a prix très abordable
Comment:
Acheté en pricematch à $17 cette carte fournit du bon son 5.1 de base. Les logiciels fournit sont correct. Moi je ne peux m' attendre à mieux de la part d'une pareille carte à ce prix. Excellent si on a un vieux système qui a encore sont utilité mais qui gagnerait à améliorer le son. Je la recommande.

Cons: Not much in the way of software but does the job.

Pros: Good 5.1 sound. No noticable problems so far.
Comment:
This is your basic 5.1 surround sound card with the usual basic software. Nothing fancy, but it works as advertised.If you need a replacement or looking for an upgrade from 2.1 sound this card will do the job. Only tested on XP so can't say if it is any good with Vista.would buy this again if I don't upgrade to something more powerful like 7.1 sound.Takes the load off your processor if you are still using on-board sound.
